The Lord has been convicting me about the harshness of my words with my children lately. Today, I read this post by Ann Voskamp @ A Holy Experience and was moved to tears over my grief at how harsh I have been with my precious blessings.
Ann’s words are always deep and make you think, but this post, it captures what the Lord has been revealing to me as of late. I share it with you, my SCM friends, in the hopes that it will bless you as it has me. As for me, well, I am going to try to speak only words that make souls grow stronger and when I fail, I am going to ask for God’s grace and the forgiveness of those I care about most and commit to it all over again.
Oh Dear Christie, thank you so much for sharing this. I was blessed by reading it thismorning; I too was filled with tears by the gentle conviction of the Holy Spirit. May you have a joyful Christmas in Him. ~ Heather
What a blessing, Christie. I, too, have cried at night over my words. I am going to print out that beautiful card as a reminder to pray for my tongue before I ever open my mouth. Words to only strengthen the soul, thank you for sharing.
You’re so sweet Christie. It’s such a gift that your children have a mother who cares so much about how she treats them. You’re a gift to them. Thank you for posting this link to help us all and to help us other mommies know we’re not alone in our struggles. God bless you!
